Aid Sought in Huge Gem Theft Chase
Scotland Yard requested Interpol help in locating thieves who stole about 300000 to 500000 worth of jewels from Waters Blot Peake in London. The robbers dressed as workmen moved cupboards into offices, returned with a skeleton key to raid safes, and fled with an 84000 necklace, a countess tiara, and jewels of titled Britons and foreign royalty.
